The solution to (21x) - (-16 + 7x) is 14x + 16
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given that (21x) - (-16 + 7x)
We have to evaluate the given expression
Let's look at the given expression
(21x) - (-16 + 7x)
Multiply the terms within second bracket with minus sign
<em><u>There are two simple rules to remember:</u></em>
- When you multiply a negative number by a positive number then the product is always negative.
- When you multiply two negative numbers or two positive numbers then the product is always positive
⇒ (21x) + 16 - 7x
Removing the parenthesis
⇒ 21x + 16 - 7x
Combining the like terms,
⇒ 14x + 16
Thus the solution is 14x + 16
D) (10 x 55) + (10 x 55) + (10 x 55) + (10 x 55)
use distributive rule to factor out 55:
55 (10+10+10+10) = 55×40
Answer:
d. 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
10x-5=16x+22
-22 -22
10x-27=16x
-10x -10x
-27=6x
x=4.5
